On the State level they arc regulated by the MPCA -ender the <br />Hazardous Waste Rules - Chapter 7045. Transporter's arc regulated by the <br />Department of TransportaCon. Storage facilities are regulated by the county, (if <br />in the metro area), or by the MPCA, (if outstatc). If storage is requested to be over <br />10 days, (classification of storage facility), o license is required from the metro <br />area county. If storage is rot more than 10 days, (classification of temporary <br />transfer station), licensing ha- not heen required. However, the counties arc <br />expected to begin requiring licensing for all temporary transfer stations as per the <br />luly 1985 amendment. Implementation of licensing has not yet begun. We are in <br />the process of submictiag our application to Ramsey County to cbtain a license for <br />a temporary transfer station- Once the apPlrcauoe is approve,, by the Ramsey <br />County Public Health Department, their clearance is gran,ed to allow construction <br />in h,Vin <br />Must of oui tun.porlation and dtsfosal service dces not bring PCP materials to ou. <br />facility. The bulk of it is picked up from our customer's sires and svppcd direcil) <br />to various EPA approved out of state disposal !ties. <br />If the quantity of waste front it customer is half a trucxload or more, it does not <br />make any sense to bring it to our facility just to unloau it and reload it later. <br />The reason for short term storing is economic. We can pick up a small quantity <br />from a ;ob performed outside the metro area. We can collect at our shop to create <br />full truckload shipments. We would collect probably no more than one and a half <br />truckloads maximum at any one time. Picking up half a truckload from a <br />customer's site and the other half collected at our facility would be likely. <br />
